Kung Fury is a Swedish action comedy short released in 2015, written and directed by David Sandberg, who also stars as Kung Fury. Crowdfunded online, the film pastiches 1980s martial arts and police movies and follows Kung Fury travelling back to kill Adolf Hitler. Hackerman, played by Leopold Nilsson, is the computer expert who makes that journey possible by hacking time. The scene became one of the film's most quoted moments, and clips of the line spread on meme pages and editing communities where it is still used for hacking and time travel jokes.

Kung Fury Hack Time is the Hackerman line from the 2015 short film Kung Fury, used in edits for coding, time travel and retro tech jokes online.
This clip captures Hackerman announcing that he can hack Kung Fury back through time, delivered in a dead serious tone that makes the impossible idea funnier. The line is short, clear and instantly recognisable to fans of the film, with that exaggerated 1980s computer expert confidence. Played on its own it turns an ordinary keyboard moment into a dramatic mission, and dropped into a video it signals that something absurdly technical is about to happen. The humour comes from the contrast between the serious delivery and the nonsense logic of hacking time itself.
